Just as with any good photo, you have to think about framing, lighting, position, and many other things if you really want to get that jaw-dropping effect.

Tit Wank: How to Give a Tit Wank

Tit Wank

Tit wanking is something that you see a lot in porn. Which naturally means that a lot of people want to try it. It can be difficult at first though, figuring out who goes where and what would make it easier.

Tit wanking is when a man thrusts his penis between the breasts until he's climaxed or you're both ready to move on to something else. It can be combined with oral stimulation of the shaft and head of the penis for him, as well as nipple play for her. There are loads of ways to give a tit wank that make it enjoyable for both partners.

Porn can give a slightly skewed version of how a tit wank works; not everyone is amazingly flexible with massive boobs, after all.

This practical guide will give you some ideas on how to give a tit wank and explain some ways to make it an enjoyable experience for both of you.

We also have a range of tit wank sex toys that are great for getting the same sensation without a partner.

How to look after and clean your Fleshlight sex toy

How to look after your Fleshlight A little tender loving care will go a long way to ensuring your Fleshlight male sex toy will give you a life-time of enjoyment.

After use, remove the gel Fleshlight insert from the plastic canister and run hot tap water through it to remove fluid deposits.

To properly re-position the gel insert inside the plastic canister, reach through the small end of the canister and pull the insert down into place.
